Following days of *relatively* restrained behavior001 Archives President Trump unleashed an attack on Dr. Christine Blasey Ford Friday morning, accusing her of failing to report the alleged assault by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh when they were both teenagers.
Survivors on Twitter bristled at Trump's tweetstorm. Using the hashtag #WhyIDidntReport, they explained their reasons for choosing not to report their own assaults.

I ask that she bring those filings forward so that we can learn date, time, and place!" Trump wrote on Twitter.

"The radical left lawyers want the FBI to get involved NOW. Why didn’t someone call the FBI 36 years ago?" Trump wrote in a followup tweet.

Here are just a few stories survivors shared following Trump's attack:
